Student Freshers Fair. Make The Most of University.




by Steve Burford


The Fresher's Fair: This event provide you with some rest from the jollity for a few hours. Make sure you don't miss it! It's a great chance to meet a few more people and get some free stuff.

It is at this event that you will be presented quite a few discount vouchers for stuff like Subway, Dominos pizza and local clubs. You will also be given the opportunity to join up with a club or society. Joining a club may not be for everyone but it is a wonderful way to meet a different circle of friends, get out and about and do something you have not done before.

Some universities are fortunate enough to have clubs like extreme sports where you can do parachute jumps for about twenty pounds. These types of clubs are a fabulously low-priced way to get fit and get out and about.

Make sure you get down to the freshers fair to check everything out whether you're the sporty type or not. Get ready. During freshers week you're going to have to sort a few things out, firstly: Your finance forms You'll really need to go and give in your forms to make sure you get all the right grants and loans. Make every effort to know when you have to go in or else you'll be financial turmoil.

Your Student Card: You'll either have to bring a photo or you'll have your photo taken. If you're having your photo taken then perhaps drink a little less the night before so you don't look like a homeless person on your student card for the next 3 years. Student Insurance: It's really worth acquiring student insurance, as it will protect you from fire, theft and sometimes loss. Students now have thousands of pounds worth of stuff with computers, laptops, games consoles, TVs, CDs, iPods, clothes and shoes.

Crime statistic: 1 in 4 students will become a sufferer of crime whilst at university. It starts from only a few pounds a month to insure, it's worth protecting that risk of something happening.

Registering with a Medical professional: Make every effort to go and obtain this sorted. It is just about guaranteed that you will have to go to a doctor at some point during your time at university. Getting all your Course Details. This is crucial! Make sure you turn up to all lectures and seminars. You won't impress your tutors by not turning up. You will have to get timetables and may even have to choose selections for the year ahead.
